Above Queen Zenobia

The three looked out at the screen as it all comes together "The Final Queen." Jill states, "Queen Dido." Annabelle states as the two exchanged looks. 

Yes, Queen Dido. She's been resting on the ocean floor since that day.

O'Brian informs them, "Which means we'll find her--" Chris states, "At Terragriga." Jill states 

Exactly. We have a responsibility to see this mission through." he informs them. "O'Brian out. 

He said. The link was cut off and the three exchanged looks, "So..." Annabelle states and the two look at her. "Another dip in the ocean then?"

~8~8~8~

O'Brian ended the call, exhaled, and leans back in his chair. Rubbing his face and then looks at the drawer, he leans forward and opens it, revealing the last sample of the T-Abyss virus.

But then the alarms went off and the FBC rolled in and aims their guns at everyone. O'Brian looks out his window, seeing that his people had guns pointed at them, and then at his door as Morgan walks into the room. O'Brian turns to him, "Morgan Lansdale." he said with his arms crossed.

"We're taking this show over. The BSAA is hereby under the direct supervision of the FBC." Morgan informs him as two of the FBC swarms in and aims their guns at O'Brian. "Clive R O'Brian. You are under arrest for collaborating with the terrorist Organization Veltro." Morgan orders him and one of the FBC wan at O'Brian and hand cuff him. "Chirs, Jill, Annabelle. You're our only hope," he mutters, refusing to struggle.

The choppered hurried across the Ocean back to where it all began, "There it is." Jill states Annabelle and Chris, look out at the ruined city. "The remains of Terragriga." Chris states, "And Queen Dido." Jill adds in as they were getting closer to the city.

Jill and Chris suit up in the sumba gear, "Approaching drop off point." Kirk informs them, "Annabelle, you sure you don't need one?" Chris asks her, "I'm fine, trust me." she informs him, he nods at her as she presses the side of her glasses and started up a new video recording and they look down at the water.

The three swam through the water looking around, as they swam forward. Then found the reminds of a ship, the look at the name on the side and it was none other than Queen Dido herself. Annabelle swam at the name and wipes away the dust. "That's Queen Dido, the third queen." Chris states. "The last sister," Annabelle mutters.

They followed Annabelle to the door as she grips onto it and pulled as she was turning the rusted wheel. The door clicks and she pushes it open, swimming inside, the two followed her as she swam to the next door and kicks it open. 

The door fell off and they swam down the hall. "It's rather quiet. Like time itself had stopped." Jill states and they swam into a room where a carcass floated in the water, "Those globs we found on the beach, they came from here!" she states as they swam under it, "That explains why Morgan cordoned off the area." Chris states as Annabelle swam up and looks at the top of it, "This thing's been stabbed good, I don't think it'll cause us any trouble." she informs them and swam back down and to the door.

She kicks it off and they walk through the room, seeing nothing, so she swam out and to the next door, kicking it off its hinges and they swam through the and Annabelle stops as she found a dead man in Veltro uniform. "I found a member of Veltro." she informs them and they look at the body, "He wanted to die a human and must have taken his own life," she states.
